Brian was facinated by horses. He loved to ride and even as a young boy he loved to draw horses. He expertly captures each movement from every veiw-point. Throughout his life he drew horses in various ways: as sketches from life, from memory to illustrate a story or poem, and as portraits. He was able to deal with this complicated subject (the moving animal) from a very early age. He worked hard at it and usd his gift for acute observation.
